What's funny is that every time somebody brings up vouchers, somebody else talks about how much it will hurt the poor, when it's the poor who are the most in favor of it, since there's no way they can afford to send their children to a different school without help. Just check out my thread on how well it's working in D.C.
OK, now I understand where you're coming from. I was under the impression you wanted to abolish public schools, which I don't believe is realistic.
